MAINTENANCE
Your heater needs hardly any maintenance. It is, however, important that you
remove dust and stains in time with a damp cloth, because otherwise these may
cause stains that are hard to remove. Under normal conditions, only 2 components
are subject to wear:
1. THE BATTERIES TYPE D (R20)
You may replace the batteries yourself. Do not dispose of old batteries along with
the other domestic waste. Follow the locally applicable regulations regarding the
disposal of domestic chemical waste. Do not throw batteries into the fire, where
they can explode or release dangerous liquids. If the appliance is to be stored or
unused for a long period, the batteries should be removed from the appliance.
2. THE WICK
To extend the glass fibre wick life, you must occasionally let the heater burn until
the tank is completely emptied and the heater extinguishes by itself. Do this when
you notice that the flame is weakening. The burn-out will cause some smells, so it
is recommended that you take the heater outside of the living room.
Do not remove any heater components yourself. Always contact your dealer
for repairs.
Let the heater cool down first, before you start any maintenance or service work.
